@ivfhope3 I'm so nervous.... trying to stay busy at work. Iv had few hot and cold flushes today... and feel tired but I think I am mentally and emotional drained this month with all this up and down during the cycle. I was so sick on the menopur injections for stimulation and then the waiting to see etc.
I really don't know how's its gone .... I don't feel any different I don't think apart from hot flushes today.

@ivfhope3 how are you feeling?

walshh091186 · 21/10/2020 22:06

@ivftake1 I had 7 collected of which 5 fertilised ... 4 got to day 5 but 2 good quality and 2 not so good so we had one transferred and 1 frozen in the end. They said it's not always quantity but quality what they told me!

ivfhope3 · 21/10/2020 22:07

@walshh091186 I'm not to bad thank you.. plodding along..
I'm sorry you was up and down on medication. Was it a fresh cycle?
Ivf is such an emotional rollercoaster..
be kind to your self :) xxx

@ivfhope3 yes it was a fresh transfer.
I'm so new to all this ... wish I had found this group earlier so good to hear all your stories and have people who know exactly how your feeling and doing... and all at a similar stage

dragonfly1978 · 21/10/2020 23:13

@ivftake1 I think 10 eggs is great! Fingers crossed for the next step!

Mctm123 · 22/10/2020 06:56

@walshh091186 I had it the day before on the Tuesday so I am 9dp5dt (14dpo today). Are you waiting for OTD? X

ivftake1 · 22/10/2020 08:42

Lentogest is easy peasy! I was worried about intramuscular but it's much better than fostimon/meriofert, they sting a lot

walshh091186 · 22/10/2020 10:31

@Mctm123 sorry what is ODT? All new to this... x

Mctm123 · 22/10/2020 10:41

@walshh091186 Oh sorry, official test day 😊

ivftake1 · 22/10/2020 10:51

9/10 have fertilised normally which is fab, just have to wait til Saturday and then Monday for day 3 and day 5 numbers.

So nerve-racking!

dragonfly1978 · 22/10/2020 11:28

@ivftake1 that's fantastic!!!

ivftake1 · 22/10/2020 11:32

I hope so! First round so I have no prior knowledge!

Mctm123 · 22/10/2020 11:58

Brilliant result @ivftake1 x

Raggity19 · 22/10/2020 12:03

Wow @ivftake1 great numbers! I’ve felt a lot more relaxed between egg collection and transfer, it’s so nice having no injections! Although these pessaries are absolutely gross!! X

ivftake1 · 22/10/2020 12:21

@Raggity19

Wow *@ivftake1* great numbers! I’ve felt a lot more relaxed between egg collection and transfer, it’s so nice having no injections! Although these pessaries are absolutely gross!! X
I have loads of injections still!

Lentogest twice a week, and inhixa everyday.

Progynova tablets three times a day, and the god awful crinone! Would prefer the anal ones to be honest GrinGrinGrin

So it's good numbers then? I was slightly disappointed yesterday but 9 fertilised sounds good.

walshh091186 · 22/10/2020 13:27

@Mctm123 sorry official test day is Monday.... I feel horrible today I'm so tearful and worried that I'm going to come on my period tomorrow... I just feel it's failed.... :( I no I shouldn't be so negative 4 days yet until official test day but can't help it did anyone else just know it hadn't worked??

ivfhope3 · 22/10/2020 17:33

@walshh091186 you are so strong :) do you have any symptoms even the slightest? Some people tho don't get any symptoms some do. I know how hard it it. An you've done so well to wait. Like I've said I tested from day 2 🤣🙈.. it's hard to think positive I get that. I really do. Does any family or friends know? Xx

@ivftake1 that's amazing well done hun 9 is a really good number... out of my 11only 5 fertized do so great number.

walshh091186 · 22/10/2020 17:40

@Mctm123
Iv had really sore breasts since starting the pessarys and I have a real bad headache I haven't been able to shift all day , Iv had bad cramps on and off for last few days but I get them when I'm due my period anyway. .... Iv caved and tested and it's negative .... so it really has probably failed hasn't it?? So down today ....

Raggity19 · 22/10/2020 17:42

@ivftake1 oh why do you still have to inject? I would prefer them anally too I think 😂 never thought I’d say that...your numbers are brilliant, I’ve got 4 and I’m ecstatic so to have 9 is amazing!

@walshh091186 hope you’re ok

@ivfhope3 I’m so happy! I know that there’s still a long way to go but my biggest fear was that we would have a failed fertilisation again so now I just feel like even if this round doesn’t work then we still have a chance in the future. If we’d had failed fertilisation again I would guess there was something fundamentally wrong. I’m booked in for 11am on Saturday! I keep thinking of my little embies, I hope they’re ok. How are you?

I know I know! Not sure why I have more injections when other people don't seem to!

I think my clinic is pretty medication heavy. Just have to trust in the process!

I'd take injections over rank crinone though! So gross. Have to dig it out after a couple of days! Awful.

Progynova has given me the worse heartburn!

ivftake1 · 22/10/2020 18:16

I'm shattered too and not a moment's peace with my son tearing around and my husband being on back to back work calls!

I needed a day in bed.

Thanks. Still a long road ahead to day 5!

Freezerbump · 22/10/2020 18:54

Hi ladies, fingers crossed for all of you!
Day 9 now and have added 75 menapor seems to be making me feel shattered!

I also feel like I have trapped wind but in my ovaries and am peeing like every 2 minutes...
I'm so over this now..

scan tomorrow so at least I get to see whether this was worth it and if anything's happening in there.. and then I'll know whether to panic about the next phase, or even if I'll get that far

Fml this is a weird and lumpy journey..

I think there's also an elf that pops in while I'm asleep and pumps my boobs up a bit more...

My tolerance for humans is quite low and my attention span is that of a goldfish, I've forgotten what it's like to feel normal, and to drink wine..,
